UK: 17-Year-Old Black Footballer Drops Dead

This always happened.

Russian troll farms have worked tirelessly to delete all of the articles about it happening before 2020 from the internet.

A teenage football prodigy related to a former Liverpool star has died on the pitch after collapsing mid-game.

Kaylen Dennis, 17, was playing for Walthamstow Football Club on Wednesday when he died suddenly in the middle of the match.

The youngster, who was cousins with Sheffield United player Rhian Brewster, was described by coaches as an ‘incredible talent’.

In a statement, the semi-pro club confirmed his death and said: ‘We are devastated to learn of the passing away of one of our U23 players, Kaylen Dennis during a game.

‘We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends, teammates and everyone that knew him.’

His cause of death remains unknown.

Brewster paid tribute to his fallen cousin during a game against Millwall last night, pointing his finger up to the sky in a moving tribute after scoring the first goal of the game.

He later told BBC Radio Sheffield: ‘I want to dedicate that goal to my younger cousin.

‘He passed away earlier today before the game, so that’s one for him and the family.

‘It’s a very tough time for the family, but I played for him today, and I was very happy to come away with a goal, and that’s for him.’

I bet it was the heat that did him in.

Athletes die of heart attacks all the time, and it’s always because of the heat.

This is about America, but we all know how hot Britain can get in December
